My clutch has no pressure, but I can still put it into gear just no movement at all. Is it completely gone or do I just have air bubbles going threw the line. I really need to know and get it fixed!

I wouldn't keep shifting the transmission without fixing that clutch pedal u will damage the transmission. If the clutch pedal has no pressure then usually the slave cylinder leaks fluid look under ur car around the big part or ur transmission where it meets the engine. See if fluid is dripping from there or was dripping from there. Also sometimes after the slave goes out it takes out the clutch master but u wont know if it did take it out until u try to bleed the system. If the pedal feels the same as usual, the truck just doesn't move you may have had a failure in the clutch itself.

Same hydraulic fluid reservoir supplies both brake and clutch master cylinders.

Hello, I am having problems with my clutch. It is not a constant problem, but every once in a while (usually at least once a day) when I try to shift into first or second to take off just after starting the car or while in heavy stop and go traffic. The clutch feels "hard" and I can't get the shifter into gear then if I take my foot off the clutch for about 5 to 10 seconds, it will let me shift into gear. Can you tell me if this means that my clutch is going out or do I need to add some type of fluid?
